Will a parent being in school help me get more financial aid?

Paying for College
1

<p>I’m applying to colleges this year, and my mom is starting her doctorate program. Will her being in school at the same time have any kind of significant impact on the amount of money I receive, like through fafsa?</p>

<p>No, it will not</p>

<p>FAFSA is simply a form. It does not give any money.</p>

<p>No. A parent in school can not be reported as a member of the family in college on your FAFSA.</p>
